Why is cocaine called "crack"?

Answer:
cocaine is not called crack. Crack is a purified form of cocaine that is "cooked" by the user, usually in a spoon with a lighter or candle, and using ammonia as a liquid base. The end result of this "cooking" is know as crack, and is a totally different high than cocaine. Cocaine is usually sniffed up the nose whereas crack is smoked through a pipe-2 totally different things with totally different results. I personally liked doing them both-for different reasons.
